INTEX 56822EP Mega Chill Inflatable Cooler: Removable Ice Chest – 5 Built-in Cup Holders – 2 Durable Handles – Easy-To-Use Connectors – River Run Compatability

It's a cooler that floats!! Let’s talk about it first. The quality is excellent. The drink holders are solid and hold well. The extra storage areas around the sides are perfect. And the cooler area, plenty big to hold a 12 pack, some food, and some water. Just fill it up with some ice and close the lid. The lid is solidly attached on one side with Velcro on the other. It will stay in place no problem and provides protection for your contents. If you purchase another of the Intex floating tubes you can connect this right to them with the special clips and rope that are provided. This keeps the cooler right where you want it. I used this cooler for going down the river on a recent trip. There were two coolers to choose from. This one and the much larger rectangular one. My review will focus on the good and bad points of both of these. Getting to the river with this float can be a pain if you have to walk from your trunk down there. First, the cooler is inflated, full of ice, the contents and kind of bulky to walk with. If you don’t have to walk far then you are lucky. Plus, you are probably going to have to bring everything to the river in another cooler and then put it in this one when you get there. Now, if you have a round cooler that will slide into this, great, perfect, wonderful. I didn’t. Someone on our trip had the Intex rectangular floating cooler. They did not have the lid on it. They filled their cooler at home with everything they needed, ice, drinks, etc. When we got to the river, they filled their tubes and carried the cooler to the river, and dropped the cooler into the tube. Done. I, on the other hand, took my cooler to the river, poured the contents into this floating cooler, and then I too was done. Except, I had to walk back to the trunk to put my other cooler back…extra trip. So what bonus does this have over the other? The drink holders and the storage area. You don’t get that with the rectangular cooler. Plus, it is a bit smaller, a little bit easier to maneuver, and I had no problem figuring out which cooler was mine, as nobody had one like this. One last thought. Do you have a pool? This is the perfect cooler for your pool. Let me repeat, this works great on the river if you can be a bit organized, but at home in the pool….perfect.

I got this this for a river tubing day to keep our beers and water cold. The unit took awhile to blow up but we wanted a large cooler. We managed to pack multiple six packs so the size was fabulous. The lid doesn’t quite seal, it mostly just sits on top so the ice didn’t last as long as I expected. The unit also came with a tether so we tied it to our inner tubes and didn’t have to keep track of it. Overall it was a great product and performed as anticipated.

Very functional and water resistant. But because of the fit of the lid, ice melts very quickly because it doesn’t close all the way on the top.

The INTEX Mega Chill Inflatable Cooler was exactly what we needed for our river trip. It’s surprisingly sturdy and spacious, holding plenty of ice, drinks, and snacks without tipping over. The built-in cup holders are a great touch and kept everyone’s drinks secure while we floated down the river. I loved the durable handles, they make it easy to carry from the car to the water, and the connectors are simple to use if you want to attach it to a raft or another cooler. The removable ice chest keeps everything chilled and organized, making it super convenient for long days on the water. If you enjoy river trips or floating adventures, this cooler is a must-have. It’s practical, fun, and keeps your drinks cold while keeping everything within reach. Highly recommend!

High quality for floating. The cheap ones deflate. This one does not. It connects to the floating tubes which is nice! Great brand. Great cooler, functional and easy to use. Perfect size.

This was ok. We used it for a river float and being in the lake. It wasn't super expensive so it worked for the few times we used it. It does not hold ice or keep things cold for very long at all.

Value for money: This is a must have item for any sort of floating. Ice does melt quickly but we solved that with a small soft sided cooler and ice packs instead of ice. Stays cold all afternoon that way. This is very durable as well. We forgot and left it out and inflated all winter and we've just now taken it to the water and didn't even have to add air. It's worth every penny.

This is a great product for the lake or rafting. I bought it for my pool. It does work as advertised, however the ice melts extremely quickly in the warm pool water. I am currently trying various icing methods to keep drinks cooler longer. I've frozen some larger ice blocks which will hopefully work better than ice cubes. I have had some success with ice packs from the freezer. However, no real complaints about the product itself. For the very reasonable price the insulation is sufficient.

i really love this UFO inflated object - and it big in a good way. It so easy to blow up, and it keep it air pretty good and long time. It fun for both grown up and children to. I bough this in February 2024. It came fast and save, when it was delievered only a few days later. I know most will use it for like pools, beachs etc -and there also some wire with if you need to attach it safe to something so it eg donot get away on the water etc. This would be so cool to use - because there alot of space for ice tube in the middel ( open up the lid ) and for what ever type of drinks to have - the holes around are good in size to have also a cold softdrink or maybe some snack in or other things if needed. However I didnot buy it for beach or pool party. I bough it for this year Halloween 2024, when I decorated the home for my nephew and niece - during the vacation here in October. You can use the idea, how ever you like in a halloween theme. But I made an UFO crashes down, where I place LED light etc. So you can use it for all kind of things, creative ideas for eg parties inside or outside. I put some photos that show how it look like blow up in size, how the lid open and so. I also add how I use it as creative thing for Halloween - as the UFO inflated thing it is photo and video. I just love this, and I can recommed it big time. It good, easy to use, fun and so.

muy buen producto, solo que en el espacio de la hielera debereia de tener aire para controlar mas la temperatura y que el agua de la alberca no transmita el calor a los hielos

Best addition to our pool. We hook ours up to the ring float. I spend hours floating round the pool with drinks and book in reach.

Works fantastic, great quality!

Such a great cooler! It was the talk of our flotilla party! Everyone was amazed by it
